The Scale-crested pygmy tyrant - Costa Rica.


Sademetsän Linnut

Trooppisissa sademetsissä elää monenlaisia lintuja, mm. papukaijoja, sarvinokkia, tukaaneja ja petolintuja, kuten kotkia, haukkoja ja korppikotkia.

Jotkut muuttolinnut elävät sademetsissä talvikauden ja palaavat viileämmille alueille kevään ja kesän ajaksi. Esimerkiksi monet Yhdysvaltojen laululinnuista talvehtii Väli-Amerikassa ja jopa Amazonasilla asti. Suomalaisista pikkulinnuista monet talvehtivat trooppisessa Afrikassa.
